Senator John Kennedy might want to consider a trip to comedy clubs after a speech that left attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in stitches.
The Louisiana Republican is a favorite of Fox News viewers, often quick to appear with unique one-liners and quips delivered in that trademark folksy Southern accent.
After allocating 15 minutes to his speech, you knew the man was going to give a speech. His opening line indicated that attendees would not be disappointed.
“My name is John Kennedy,” he clapped. “I am a United States Senator.”
“Although I tried to climb on it,” he quipped, eliciting laughter from the crowd.

“Truth will be the theme of the day,” he said. “Unadorned, unadorned truth.”
“The truth is Americans aren’t perfect. We’re not,” Kennedy said. “But the other side is crazy.”
“Americans don’t deserve a deeply eccentric regime … people who hate George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potatohead, who hyperventilate on their yoga mats if you use the wrong pronoun,” Kennedy continued.
“They think kids should be able to change their gender at leisure … and think they’re better than us.”

Senator John Kennedy offered another obscure fact in his CPAC speech. But he delivered it ever so gently.
“I don’t hate anyone. I look for grace wherever I can find it, so I’ll say this slowly … ” Kennedy joked. “The Biden administration will be absorbed.”
Biden’s persistently low approval ratings on nearly every major issue facing Americans suggest that yes, that’s true — this administration sucks.
How bad is it? Well, let’s take Senator Kennedy’s explanation of the President’s incompetence.
“President Biden is amazingly awful. If you put President Biden in charge of the Sahara desert, he’d run out of sand,” he quipped.
“If aliens landed in Washington, D.C. tomorrow and said, ‘Take me to your leader,’ it would be embarrassing.”

Man is a national treasure
John F. Kennedy’s CPAC speech should be enshrined in the National Archives, though there’s a chance President Biden will bring it home to his garage.
Given how much material he’s delivered over the years, it’s hard to overstate how entertaining the man is.
Despite the nuggets of wisdom, the man dropped other truths: “Kale tastes like I’m fat.”

Simply a thing of beauty. We recommend watching Senator John Kennedy’s CPAC speech in its entirety below.
Previous Hall-of-Fame efforts include Dr. Kennedy. After the shooting down of Anthony Fauci, he complained that the attacks on him were attacks on ‘science’. In almost every Covid-related report in the last few years, the ‘science’ has finally been proven wrong.
“This is Dr. Not about Fauci. It’s not about their feelings, and I’m sorry if their feelings are hurt,” Kennedy said. “You know, maybe he should buy an emotional support horse.”

“They think America and its people are even more evil now, that we’re all racist and misogynistic and evil,” Kennedy said of the ‘squad.’
“They’re entitled to their opinion, they’re Americans, but I’m entitled to mine, and I think they’re left-wing cranks and they’re the reason there’s directions on the shampoo bottle,” he added.
As we have said, Senator John Kennedy is a national treasure.
